  • Finish Welcome to the Jungle Terrain.

same meager goals as last month:(

Try to airbrush prime my mini's with stynlrez.

Try to paint at least ONE mini from primed selection above.

 

July was rough, but with house almost back in order and the oldest back in school (yah!) and me NOT back in school (taking fall semester off), I may get something done!

Paint anything. Have been working lots and just haven't been motivated about my minis. Last year was a record breaking good one for me making and painting things. I've only painted a couple hours max since March this year. Starting to want to work on a few things while it's warm out. Winter is coming and all that.

Seems to be a common theme this month, probably due to the sheer heat a lot of us have had to deal with.... 

 

I'll still pick three to work on and hopefully they will be completed ^_^

- Finish sculpting work on Wyrmgear

- Finish up my Skaven Warlord

- Finish my Reaver of Kargir

- bonus goal: Continue work on, and hopefully finish Tanith! 

 

In addition, one other goal comes to mind... 

- Minions, assemble!  Err, I mean start getting my skirmishers into the bases I've made for them, as well as finish assembling my Nigh Runners...  Since I have bases for pretty much all of them

- bonus goal: Prepare bases for my clan rats and/or plague rats, since I have 100 bases coming in the mail at some point! (probably Monday, unless I get really lucky)

This month is going to be super busy so I'll keep it short...maybe. Here is a picture of all my to do and current WIP minis (was going to color code them then pulled out the pens and immediately forgot about that...) Spoilered because picture looks kinda big to me:

Stages of Completion:

  1. Marth is currently my number one WIP it is due by August 19th if I want to enter this contest (I really, really do.)
  2. Frost Giant Queen is in flux as to when it is do since it will be a giveaway on IG once I hit 1K followers (which is creeping up on me.)
  3. Beastman...I should do him today because he is needed tomorrow (8/5/18).
  4. Ma'al is currently a WIP. Probably won't need him until 2020 now depending on tomorrow's conversation at Husband's D&D game goes.
  5. Mini Ma'al is also WIP. Currently anticipating needing it by Christmas.
  6. Brand is a WIP. Only needs a little more to go but might not need him for a while.
  7. Kassandra of the Blade I have not started. Need her by September 10th, maybe?
  8. SoB Wave 2... I've painted 2 of the roughly 140 minis there are. I hope to cut this down a lot during Minivember.
  9. Isabeau Laroche. Have not started, no needed date as she's just a fun project.
  10. Shub-Niggurath. Haven't started yet but feel I may need it sooner than expected.

 

So for AUGUST:

  • Finish Marth
  • Paint Beastman
  • Start FrGQ
  • Go on Vacation
  • Have fun on Vacation

August goals:

  • Strip and repaint two ice dragon hatchlings (in process)
  • Finish at least one more dragon on my paint table (there are 5 currently in various stages of completion)
  • Most importantly, continue working on my 35 miniatures commission.  It is being done in stages, one team at a time.  First 5 are finished, next 4 are primed and ready for paint.

the Giant jailer was a pipe dream, but I may bring him to the con as a practice piece.

      2021: A New Hope (Jan. Hobby Goals)
      By SparrowMarie
      It's a new year! And with that come new goals. 
       
      I've got a short list but need to iron it out a bit before committing.

      Winter is Coming...(November Hobby Goals)
      By Rob Dean
      Since it’s the 2nd of November and nobody has started this topic yet, I will...
       
      My goal this month is to finish enough Prince August home cast figures to stage a skirmish, and then to actually play it.  I came close last month, with a last minute finish on nine figures, but I’ll need several more to field my orcs and such warband.
       
      My secondary goal is to get back to painting more regularly; I started the year at a pace of ~1 tabletop-grade figure per day, but I’ll need to stick to painting if I want to end the year with a pace of half a figure per day.  I’ve been running something about that the past couple of years, which means that, if I were serious about this, I would need to focus a bit more.  For most of the rules I play, a new project would be something like two armies of twelve units each of twelve figures, or a total of about 288 figures.  If I didn’t “butterfly”, that would be about a year and a half of painting, which wouldn’t be so bad if I could actually stay focused on a single project.  The odds against that are very long, of course. I’m currently looking at three new starts  (Classical Greeks in 1/72, Franco-Prussian War in 40mm home cast using vintage molds, and generic horse and musket with imagi-nations in portable 1/72) plus three ongoing projects that could use a fair bit of work (40mm French Revolution, 1/72 scale fantasy—playable but wants two Hordes of the Things armies to fill out the campaign, about 120 figures, and 25mm vintage Tolkien fantasy—for which I undoubtedly already own more figures than will be painted) and several skirmish projects.
